About the book
WHAT IF YOU COULD GIVE UP YOUR LIFE AND TAKE OVER SOMEONE ELSE'S? Ben Bradford has it all. A beautiful wife, two adorable children, a big house in an upscale neighborhood, and a top paying job as a partner at a New York law firm. But scratch the surface and you'll find a deeply unhappy man. Not only did he want to be a photographer, but his wife is slipping away from him into the arms of another man.... who just happens to be a photographer. WHAT IF YOU HAD NO CHOICE? When a confrontation with the lover turns ugly, a split second is all Ben needs to realize he can head out west with a new identity and a proverbial second chance at making it big as a photographer. But the price he pays is high. Ben must give up his family, his job, his home, his LIFE. And just when you think he's pulled it off, it turns out there's a hitch. Even in places like a small Montana town, it's only a matter of time before your past catches up with you.
